Pie No. Xx – Summertime Berry Pie

“You don’t bring to ready fancy or complicated masterpieces –

just skilful nutrient from fresh ingredients.”  Julia Child.

That’s what this pie is all about.  Fresh summertime fruits introduced to each other inward a large pastry bowl.  It may non hold upwards the prettiest pie I’ve e'er made, but it is simply plain-old-tasty!  There is nix similar fresh fruit.  I tried to brand a berry pie a few weeks agone together with ended upwards alongside a bowl of fruit, that was delicious yesteryear the way.  Berry pies don’t stand upwards up pretty together with strong every bit some cream pies but the messiness is purpose of the appeal.

Pick over fresh blueberries, removing stems together with debris.

Blackberries are fascinating to me.  We picked blackberries every bit a menage unit of measurement when I was a young girl.

That’s a fun storey best told when I brand a blackberry pie this summer.

You’ll likewise require fresh raspberries…yum.

And of course of educational activity strawberries circular out the cast.

Clean together with launder all the berries, hull the strawberries together with cutting them inward half.  Put all the berries together inward a large bowl together with then they tin give notice hold upwards friends.

Next you lot volition require sugar, lemon juice, corn starch together with tapioca.

Sprinkle the juice of 1 lemon over the berries.

Mix the saccharide together with tapioca inward a pocket-size bowl.

Stir Corn Starch into the saccharide mixture.

Sprinkle the saccharide mixture over the berries together with stir gently to coat.

After a infinitesimal or two a wonderful juice starts to coat the berries.

Set aside together with allow the berries larn busy making juice spell you lot fix the pie crust.

With Memorial Day together with Fourth of July coming up, I reckon a patriotic pie would hold upwards fun. Make a double Pasty shell and encompass the top alongside a lattice pattern or occupation a star cookie cutter and house them on top of the berries.

Sprinkle a picayune saccharide on top of the crust together with bake!

 I actually beloved that the berries didn’t plow to mush.  You tin give notice run across together with taste all the unlike berries.

 Add a dollop of sweetened cream together with you lot bring red, white together with blue!

I should bring lay a flag inward the middle!  I promise you lot brand something fun together with delicious this week.  If you lot reach upwards one's heed to brand this pie together with similar the cut-out idea, I intend it would hold upwards a picayune amend if you occupation all large stars together with overlay them a bit.  I could bring covered the top all the means leaving pocket-size steam vents.  Just a thought.  You tin give notice likewise brush a beaten egg or milk on the top crust to tending it brown.  Sprinkle alongside saccharide together with bake.
